Smooth as a new jar of Skippy.
Brief stay, but the uber friendly and helpful staff, even procuring free tickets to the Guggenheim, getting taxis and advice about local dining sure made it go perfectly.

I loved the Artist Hotel; it was a truly enjoyable stay. I had a view room across from the Puppy at the Guggenheim. The front desk staff provided a map, so I was able to enjoy tapas and wine at various locations, in addition to the River Walk back from the Old Town .
